Should Carmelo Anthony Win the MVP Award? — Sports Survey of the Day

Carmelo Anthony has been on an absolute tear lately, the main reason his New York Knicks have now won 10 games in a row. Is he getting closer to winning his first Most Valuable Player award?

On Wednesday night, Anthony and the Knicks beat the Hawks, 95-82. After scoring 50 points the night before, he dropped 40 on an overmatched Atlanta defense.

New York is proving itself a real contender, and a lot of that is thanks to Carmelo Anthony. Right now they are second in the Eastern Conference, behind only the Miami Heat.
